New Zealand Fishing

Experience the best freshwater fishing and saltwater fishing in New Zealand with Exclusive Adventures.

The New Zealand freshwater fly fishing experience is about the quality of the catch. We focus on the stalk and the fight allowing anglers to make the most of the overall excursion in beautiful surrounds with not another rod or fly in sight. Exclusive Adventures trout fishing guides know the surrounding lakes and rivers intimately and will put clients in the right spot to catch that beautiful trophy fish.

New Zealand also offers fantastic deep sea fishing and an abundance of quality fish with both the south and north islands providing an assortment of species. Different species can be targeted all year round and trips can be planned to meet the schedule and priorities of each client. Big game fish such as Marlin are generally caught between January to April with Giant Blue Fin Tuna targeted in August to September. Sport fish like Kingfish, Cod, Snapper and Grouper can be caught all year round.

Itineraries can be tailored to combine both fishing and hunting depending on the time of year and client preference. Learn more about our fishing experiences below.
